HIGH SCHOOL PROMPTS

Charitable organizations need help and often ask for money around Christmas and at the year’s end.  You may be familiar with the bell ringers of the Salvation Army and their red buckets near store entrances.

The Salvation Army, the Red Cross, police and firefighter organizations, local food pantries, and local homeless shelters are all worthy causes that ask for contributions near Christmas.

Will you or your family be giving to a charity this year?
